include a potting boot. MS potting connectors are
available in the following types:
·

receptacle
with
flange
for
mounting to a firewall or bulkhead.
·
MS25183-a straight plug used at the end of
a wire or wire bundle.
·
MS25183A-similarto MS25183, with the
addition of a grounding screw.
b. Inspection of Connectors. Ensure reliability of
connectors by seeing that the following conditions are
met or that repairs are effected as required:
(1) Inspect connectors for security, evidence
of overheating, and exteriors for corrosion and cracks.
(2) Replace overheated connectors. Wires
leading to connectors must also be inspected for
deterioration due to overheating.
(3) Replace corroded connectors. If
corrosion is a recurring problem, install a potted
connector.
